# SAFE Grilling Act Summary **What It Would Do:** The SAFE Grilling Act would require the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)—a federal agency that protects public safety—to create and run a public education campaign about grill safety. This campaign would inform the public about dangers associated with grilling and teach best practices to prevent injuries and fires. **Who It Affects:** This bill would primarily affect American consumers who grill, as well as the CPSC, which would be responsible for developing and executing the awareness campaign.
The campaign could reach millions of people through various media and educational channels. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced in the 119th Congress by Representative Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives.
